developers. Refer to the README file on the root directory of the ServerGuide
Operating System Updates CD.
A variety of powerful applications are included with ServerGuide, and you do not
need activation keys. Offerings can vary with the release. Check the Netfinity
Applications CD labels for a list, or start the Nefinity Setup and Installation CD and view
the online overview.
Installation instructions vary with the NOS you are using. Refer to the NOS-specific
installation instructions that are printed on each ServerGuide Netfinity Applications
CD label.
Note:
You will also receive a TechConnect CD with your server. You must have
Windows installed to run the TechConnect program. The program
"autostarts" when the CD is inserted.

Network operating system (NOS) installation
Be sure the system is a supported Netfinity server with a
startable (bootable) CD-ROM drive.
If the startup (boot) sequence settings have been altered, be
sure the CD-ROM is first in the boot sequence.
If more than one CD-ROM drive is installed, be sure that
only one drive is set as the primary drive. Start the CD from
the primary drive.
Be sure there are no duplicate SCSI IDs or IRQ
assignments.
Be sure that the hard disk drive is connected properly.
